It’s Callin’ Me

[Intro] Yeah, yeah Ain’t no sleep in this room I hear it in the walls [Verse 1] White tie, black shoes Palm on the suitcase latch Dice on the table But I ain’t here for that She left a note Folded neat like a knife Said, “When it gets cold You’ll know what I’m like” I’m in the back room With the smoke and the gold One eye on the clock One eye on the road Every little sign Got my name in the frame Then the horn hit hard And I knew that name [Pre-Chorus] It gets loud When the night goes thin That tune in my bones Keeps pulling me in I try to turn But it pulls harder now Say my name once And I’m gone somehow [Chorus] The calling, it’s calling me The calling, it’s calling me Don’t tell me run I already seen The calling, it’s calling me (The calling, it’s calling me) [Verse 2] Chrome on my wrist But my heart stay bare Three knocks at the door And nobody there I seen that shadow In a cartoon grin Big coat, mean eyes And the plot kick in She got that look Like a final frame One hand on the truth One hand on the game I said, “Baby, what now?” She just laughed low Then the whole room bent Like a domino row [Pre-Chorus] It gets loud When the night goes thin That tune in my bones Keeps pulling me in I try to turn But it pulls harder now Say my name once And I’m gone somehow [Chorus] The calling, it’s calling me The calling, it’s calling me Don’t tell me run I already seen The calling, it’s calling me (The calling, it’s calling me) [Bridge] [Half-time] No saints in the mirror Just a kid and a vow I was made for the fall But I’m standing here now If the curtain drops Let it drop on me I’ll walk through the dark If it sets me free [Final Chorus] The calling, it’s calling me The calling, it’s calling me Don’t tell me run I already seen The calling, it’s calling me The calling, it’s calling me Say it one time And I break the seam The calling, it’s calling me (The calling, it’s calling me)
